Customer Reviews
Great package item at great price!
I love this package! The pump is easy to use and fits well in your hand. The tube is flexible so the needle won't bend if the ball moves while pumping. I really appreciate the ability to read the ball's air pressure. This will be extremely helpful as I am mainly a basketball coach, and the air pressure is regulated and adhered to. No more under or over inflated basketballs!
So far the pump has performed well. Usually pumps break down, having too short a life span, but this one seems to be better made!
Very good pump for the price
This pump is a good value and works great. It pumps up a deflated ball faster than I expected. I like having the option of using the extension tube or not and usually don't use it, holding the ball between my knees. If I was rating the pump only, I'd give it 5 stars. But since this is a kit, I gave it 4 stars. One reason is that the guage it comes with isn't very accurate. I ended up buying the other dial type guage and it is excellent. The other thing is that it would be nice if this all came in some sort of a kit. I solved that with a zippered neoprene pouch, sort of like a large cell phone case, and it holds everything together well.
Good for the price
Like another reviewer mentioned I would have preferred a model with a built in gauge. That said I found that this unit is a good deal for the price. The problem with inflation needles is that they constantly are being broken or bending. I wise option would be to offer this unit with a hard carry case that holds all the parts. Luckily I had a small cardboard container that everything fits into perfectly. Now we can keep it in an equipment bag without the worry of the needles being damaged. This pump inflates with the action going in both directions. Something to keep in mind when using this pump. It doesn't take much effort to over inflate.
